Best Answer

In 1852, Matthew Perry left Norfolk, Virginia for Japan to pursue a Japanese trade treaty. He arrived at Uraga Harbor near Edo (early Tokyo) on July 8, 1853. Perry was told by representatives of the Tokugawa Shogunate to go to Nagasaki instead, which was the only Japanese port open to foreigners at the time.
